Abstract
BACKGROUND: Helicobactor pylori (H. pylori) have the potential role in the pathogenesis of various extra-gastric disorders such as metabolic disorders. But, it is now questioned about whether H. pylori eradication reduces or induces the risk for metabolic disorders especially in patients with dyspepsia. Hence, the present study aimed to assess the effects of H. pylori eradication on criteria of metabolic syndrome. METHODS: H. pylori infected patients with dyspepsia were included. The patients were treated with omeprazole (20mg, q12h), amoxicillin (1g, q12h), and clarithromycin (500mg, q12h) for two weeks, then H. pylori eradication was evaluated by C14 Breathing test (UBT) 6 weeks after the end of the treatment. Demographic data, clinical manifestation and metabolic parameters were recorded before and three months after completing treatment regimen. The data was analyzed by SPSS version 16.0. RESULTS: Of 110 patients were initially enrolled, 91 patients completed the study. Overall eradication rate was 61.5%. Significant differences in the serum level of total cholesterol(180.7±34 vs. 172.1±28, p=0.001), LDL(107.0±25 vs. 100.8±20, p<0.001), HDL(46.2±8.7 vs. 48.9±8.6, p<0.001), fasting blood sugar (93.7±12 vs. 90.9±10, p=0.001), hemoglobin A1c(5.37±0.52 vs 5.25±0.53, p=0.006), and as well as for waist circumference(92.2±14 vs. 91.4±13.9, p=0.03) was found after treatment. Data for body weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and triglyceride level remained without any significant changes. CONCLUSION: H. pylori eradication could relatively reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome criteria such as fasting blood sugar, hemoglobin A1c, lipid profile and waist circumference.
